Jimmy Jewell
Not the old comedian/actor but an old football referee, manager and BBC television commentator. Refereed a Cup Final and an Olympic games match in front of Hitler, then managed Norwich City for a short period before WW2, then joining the BBC afterwards. Add in service in both World Wars and a couple of marriages quite an interesting life. Search for 'Jimmy Jewell - The Lost Voice of Football' a BBC Radio Norfolk programme available to listen to for the next 4 weeks via the BBC Sounds app. Lasts for an hour and is a very interesting listen.
